Lester Munson

On Her Game: Caitlin Clark and the Revolution in Women’s Sports
by Christine Brennan

Lester Munson has been a nationally-known commentator, former ESPN senior writer and legal analyst, and WTTW Chicago Tonight guest. For this annual visit, he turns his sports focus and perspective toward women’s basketball and the sensational star athlete, Caitlin Clark, and all she has brought to the explosive interest in her sport.

Munson has added the book Football  by Chuck Klosterman. In this recently published book, he shows how football is different from all other sports and argues that football is doomed. He predicts that the sport will be gone within three or four decades.

We have enjoyed large crowds and a loyal following for over 36 years, featuring community presenters and many local authors.
Batavia Mayor Jeff Schielke presented at the first program in 1987, and has been featured every season since.
